To all who inspect these present letters, we affirm and testify that we have extracted particles from the authentic bones of St. Maria Goretti, Virgin and Martyr, and have placed them in a round metal casing, enclosed with glass, tied with red silk cords, and sealed with our seal. In witness of this, we have issued these testimonial letters, signed by us and fortified with our seal.
